DirecTV Streaming Customers Get The CW In Four Markets

0

If you’re a DirecTV streaming customer in four cities where The CW Network affiliate is owned by Gray Television, you can now view these channels thanks to a new carriage agreement.


A DirecTV spokesperson tells RBR+TVBR that as of today the following stations are now on the streaming channel lineups for their respective DMAs:

  • WQCW-30 in Charleston-Huntington, W. Va.
  • WMTV-15.2 in Madison, Wisc.
  • KYCW-LD 25 in Springfield, Mo.
  • KSCW-33 in Wichita-Hutchinson, Ks.

The May 7 announcement follows DirecTV’s April 18 agreement to begin offering its streaming customers access to The CW affiliates in eight markets. Each of those stations are owned by entities other than Nexstar Media Group, the controlling interest holder in The CW.

The April 18 deal included one Gray Television station: WUAB-43 in Cleveland. It is a former Raycom station.

An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated the former owner of this TV station. Additionally, all Gray television stations are negotiated under the same agreement.
